Goodwill is not a charity. Look it up. Theyre just a resale boutique and nothing goes to donations. They have a percentage they claim but it does not go to donations instead it goes to the employees salary and property costs (utilities, taxes, material, maintance,etc.). So basically Goodwill abuses tax loopholes with scheme that tricks the public into thinking it donates for a cause when actually it just rights off business costs as charity (they get to run a business for free bc of exemptions and keep all profits). A charity actually donates money, services or goods to a particular population whether out right or through income based programs. A resale boutique buys used items and resells them at a discounted price and does not donate any goods, money or services. Legit charities dont deceive the public by stating only percentage given but not where is goes. Many sleasy sales men admire this scheme bc they simply chose a good name (Good-Will) that comes off as a charity so it draws people in bc they think theyre doing good when actually its just another corp chain thats drives out local business that actually do good and damages the economy even further through monopolies. Dont shop there, shop local! Lets keep our community around for our kids too!

Goodwill is an organization that was founded in 1902. The original reason for Goodwills being was created by a Methodist minster, Edgar J. Helms. He created Goodwill to provide a chance for those who were poor to be able to be trained and hired. He collected household items and goods from the wealthier cities to create a store that sold these items. Goodwill was purely created to help the poor. Im not sure what Goodwills intentions are today, but I know its main purpose and thats why I am such a supporter of it. If Goodwills meanings have changed that is sad. But I know what it was intended for. I live going to Goodwill.

Better watch prices! Sign says $1 or .50 cents *unless otherwise marked* yet thats not the case when u get to the check out. Not my fault the staff cant mark correct prices. Everything they receive is a donation. Rude. Clueless.

This is a clean well organized second hand thrift store. And priced reasonable. Some good wills price their items a little higher, I think they forget the stuff is donated, and who their clientele is (bargain hunters)
